Bristol Free School

Speedy deletion nomination of [[:File:Bristol Free School.JPG]

Greater Anglia

Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you recently tried to give Greater Anglia a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into another page with a different name. This is known as a "cut and paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is needed for attribution and various other purposes. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page. This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the _target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Cut and paste move repair holding pen. Thank you.

Greater Bristol Metro scheme

Please don't rename an article while there is an open AfD discussion. Thanks. --Bob Re-born (talk) 20:33, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

If you want to create an article about proposed transport schemes then please do it separately with a new article. Don't change the purpose/focus of the existing article. --Bob Re-born (talk) 20:42, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

Disambiguation link notification

Hi. When you recently edited Cribbs Causeway, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Thornbury (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Talk Talk

Hi Mark, I'm not convinced by the page move on the talk talk article. Its not a big thing, but can you engage me on that article's talk and come to an agreement. As I say, no real big deal. Ceoil (talk) 23:55, 28 January 2012 (UTC)

Schools

Nice work on the schools as always. A couple of observations - please give references where you quote pupil numbers, the best place to get these is the EduBase link. Also, with the UK education project I would spend some time establishing the project and getting some members before you start rating articles. It seems crazy that you are rating every school as mid or higher. I would say all schools are low with only stand-out ones such as Bristol Free School (important as one of the first schools) being mid-importance. High importance has to be for some really exceptional reason. So grow the project, get consensus on the ratings, document the ratings, and then start adding them to articles. --Bob Re-born (talk) 22:24, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Various

Please follow WP:MOSNUM when formatting numbers and dates. UK, for example uses 1 January 2012 not 1st January 2012, or January 1st, 2012.

Also, please do not abuse the {{Under construction}} template. You have a tendency to put the template on an article, have a short fit of editing, then you leave it in place. If you intend to do major work to an article then by all means use the template, but do please remove it in a timely manner when you have finished.

Finally, please consider properly formatting reference. Preferably you should use the {{cite web}}, {{cite news}}, or {{cite book}} template. If you have any questions please ask. --Bob Re-born (talk) 16:33, 22 February 2012 (UTC)

Typo on user page

Hi. I just noticed at User:Mark999#Talk pages, you say encase, when you probably mean in case. -- Trevj (talk) 08:20, 10 May 2012 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Wessex Logo 2012.png)

Thanks for uploading File:Wessex Logo 2012.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:11, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

July 2012

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. I noticed your recent edit to Britannia Airways does not have an edit summary. Please provide one before saving your changes to an article, as the summaries are quite helpful to people browsing an article's history. Thanks! JetBlast (talk) 12:30, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

Establishment dates of schools

Hi there, I have noticed that you have updated some establishment dates of schools that have become academies. I just want to inform you that although an academy is technically a new school, because they start off in the same buildings as the old school AND they take a direct transfer of the old school's pupils, on Wikipedia we do class them as the same school. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me. Bleaney (talk) 12:15, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Bedminster Down logo.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Bedminster Down logo.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.

To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 23:05, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
